This article pretty much sum sup the testing as it was & now is in the MA's.For us older MA's it brings back memories of being promoted not in ceremony but just by the Sensei telling us to comeback next time iwth a belt of either brown or black depending upon the ranking level. Much simpler then...no fees, no test-stress...just hard work & the instructor's evaluation.

Yeah, I'm struggling with the Shodan test. Even though mine is relatively straightforward compared to many. I will have to do three kata in a row, 7 kumite (one/two/thre + step drills) with partner and about 6 bunkai. I have been stressing out over it, but figure it will happen sometime in the next year.
